Potassium Humate is an organic chemical compound that finds several industrial applications. It is widely used as a component in fertilizer and pesticide formulation to improve soil fertility and plant growth. It is also utilized in soil remediation projects to mitigate soil pollution. It acts as a natural chelating agent that helps in binding heavy metals and other pollutants to reducing their bioavailability and prevent their uptake by plants. It also finds its application in removing contaminants and reducing the presence of harmful substances in water. In biotechnology, potassium humate is used to increase the biomass of algae and mushrooms to improve yields in these industries.
The market for Potassium Humate is primarily driven by its demand as a highly effective organic fertilizer for applications in agriculture. Its utilization as an ingredient in the production of compound fertilizers to enhance their effectiveness largely contributes to its demand in the agriculture sector. Its application as a component in the treatment of water and as a natural chelating agent in soil remediation further enhances its demand in the water treatment and environmental services industries. Its involvement in the production of bio-fertilizers, vermicompost, and compost also fuels its demand in the biotechnology industry. Potassium Humate is synthesized from leonardite, lignite, or other humic-rich materials.
The availability of these raw materials can vary based on mining conditions, geographical factors, and environmental regulations affecting extraction practices. Any changes in the cost and availability of these materials directly affect the production and cost of potassium humate. Growth in organic farming and sustainable agricultural practices significantly promotes demand and influences procurement decisions for potassium humate. Compliance with environmental, health, and safety regulations related to its usage and environmental impact further impact industrial Potassium Humate procurement and costs.
Raw Material for Potassium Humate Production
According to the Potassium Humate manufacturing plant project report, the major raw material for Potassium Humate production include Leonardite or Lignite-Potassium Hydroxide.
Manufacturing Process of Potassium Humate
The extensive Potassium Humate production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:
- Production via Leonardite or Lignite: This method of synthesizing Potassium Humate involves the use of leonardite or lignite as the raw material. The process begins with the selection of either leonardite or lignite, which is naturally oxidized for over three months and then crushed into a fine powder. This powder is then supplied to a reaction tank, where it undergoes a chemical reaction with potassium hydroxide (KOH) under high pressure and temperature. The resulting mixture is then transferred to sedimentation tanks to separate humin and impurities. After sedimentation, the dilution is filtered through a centrifugal process to obtain high-purity humate liquid. Finally, the product is dried using one of three methods: rolling drying for flake type, spray drying for powder type, or solar drying for crystal form to obtain potassium humate as a product in its desired form.
Potassium humate is a black, water-soluble powder derived from lignite or leonardite with a characteristic odor. It has a melting point of approximately 300 degree Celsius. The molecular formula of the compound is C9H8K2O4, and its molar mass is 258.35 g/mol. It has an alkaline pH ranging from 9 to 11 and contains 8-12% K2O, with humic acid content varying from 50-55%. Its chemical composition includes carbon (38.44%), nitrogen (2.76%), sulfur (1.04%), hydrogen (3.40%), and oxygen (54.81%), with functional groups including phenolic and carboxylic groups. It is 100% soluble in water. Potassium humate is chemically stable under normal conditions and has a carbon-to-nitrogen ratio of 16.40. Its high solubility, alkaline nature, and ability to increase soil's Effective Cation Exchange Capacity (ECEC) make it valuable as a soil conditioner, improving soil structure, nutrient retention, and microbial activity, particularly in acidic soils.
